paiyngodiya naan patridindri vaadamal
Patrukodai ka Arunachala

Meaning
Arunachala! I’m like a young creeper looking for a strong branch to hold on to and grow. Please make sure that I don’t wilt away without any grip, and offer me a strong pole to support me and protect me.

Explanation
Bhagavan imagines himself to be a young girl with no means of support by likening the condition to a young creeper plant looking for the branch of a tree to spread itself on. Likening himself to a helpless lass deluded by the illusory nature of the material world with its snares and traps, he is pleading with Arunachala to support and protect him as a rightful groom (who would stand by the side of his bride).  To remove the stain of ego resulting from its mistaken identity with the body (as I), Bhagavan is pleading for the light of wisdom from Arunachala, he expresses a similar sentiment in another place  (verse 79 meegaman illamal …).

    This is my attempt at translating T.R.Kanakammal's Nool Thirattu in English for those devotees who don't understand Tamil. Hope it helps you. Ramana Saranam! Periyava Saranam!
